A reoccurring problem on this board goes like this:
1) Someone starts a post on a topic.
2) Someone responds and a discussion begins to develop.
3) Someone posts a stupid off topic comment.
4) Everyone forgets what the original discussion was about and the entire thread becomes a flame war.
I either have to delete the entire post or move it to the “open forumâ€.

Ideally the member who posted the off topic comment would have used restraint and not added their comment in the first place. However when this happens the most important thing I would like you all to do is to ignore the off topic comment and keep the conversation going.
Responding to the off topic comment only encourages the trolls to continue this behavior. Only by ignoring the trolls and not feeding them will they go away.
